How old are you, Grant? My granddaddies were making hard cider in the very
early 20th century, and late 19th century, I was drinking it more than 50

years
ago, and I'm positive we were far from the first folks south of Canada to

try
it.


I'm 66 and tried my first hard cider in Westchester County about 50 years ago,
but my grandparents were from Kentucky and Virginia, and started their tasting
probably close to 100 years before that.

Hard cider has probably been around since the second apple.
